I have an SL-C860 Sharp 1.40J ROM convered to English with StuBear's script. I have Windows XP Pro SP1. I have connected the unit to the PC with USB TCP/IP Advanced connection. No problems pinging or using the Zaurus File Transfer application. But I can't get Outlook 2000 to sync.

I am using the USB driver and Intellisync 3.2E for the Zaurus 5500 package as suggested. I can select my Outlook 2000 Contacts folder OK, but when I start the sync, it goes through the motions saying "preparing records" (or similar), then when I start the transfer, I get a message that says:

"Please wait. Writing large amounts of data." Then nothing - this message stays on the screen for hours. I have tried folders with only 1 contact, Calendar, Notes - always the same problem. I have removed the Intellisync software and driver, cleaned out the registry, re-installed, same problem.

I can't find them on the net. If anyone has a copy, I would appreciate if you could make them available.

Thank you very much.

My goal: full Japanese support, and also Cyrillic support (I want to use Cacko because it supports Cyrillic input). I can't get Cyrillic input working on the original ROM. I have a SL-C860 purchased from Japan.

I am a SL-C860 newbie. I've had it for a while and am ready to take the next step - Cacko ROM installation.

Questions:

1. I want English but I also want full Japanese support (reading, handwriting recognition, Jisho, translator, etc.). Is this possible? This link seems to indicate it is (http://externe.net/zaurus/forum/viewtopic.php?t=602&highlight=sash+rom+usb) but the files needed are no longer available. Can I get them anywhere?

2. Does the Cacko ROM support synching with Outlook? I can't get this working properly under the normal ROM

3. Is the Cacko ROM still under development? Where is the main source of information about it?

4. How much room does the Cacko ROM take up compared to the standard Sharp ROM my unit originally had?

5. Is there a list of features and software contained in the Cacko ROM?

You can tell I am a newbie so any other advice is appreciated. Thank you!
